Family Gregg

So yesterday....I go over to my girlfriend, Lisa's house and start complaining about my MATH DAY FROM HELL...all the while knowing that I'm being convicted to go deeper rather than run away or bury my head in the sand....because the fact that we even had a m.d.f.h....most likely/definitely means that our family has some character issues that need addressing...and that MATH is not really the core problem at all.

She gives me an article to read.

Apropos.

Yeah, she's the friend you will read about over there on the right side of my blog...in the "home-education" section...who asked if I was doing this home-education thing in my own strength all those years ago. The one who challenged the "take it one year at a time" mentality I had fallen into at the high school panic mode freak out fear based juncture.

Every home-educating Mom needs a friend like her.

I might even be that friend to you. It's my own convictions I sometimes have trouble walking in...it's my own "wise" advice I sometimes have trouble following.

All this to say....read the article. It's fabulous and reiterates everything I know to be true but on occasion would like very much to deny. If not deny...then at least ignore for a little while until it goes away.....which it never does.
